Violent thug banned from town centres
He was part of a gang who picked fights with revellers and threatened pub staff.
And now Ian Moorhouse has been banned from entering two town centres on their busiest nights of the week.
The 22 year-old has been given a Criminal Anti Social Behaviour Order which prevents him from visiting Kidderminster and Bewdley on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings.
The order, which lasts for three years, was imposed by magistrates after he was jailed for three assaults, and using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour, obstructing police, and resisting police.
It came into effect on December 20 upon his release from prison. Worcester Magistrates Court was told Moorhouse, of Highley Close, Kidderminster, first came to police attention aged 13.
On one occasion when police went to arrest him he headbutted one officer and elbowed another in the face and was so violent he had to be tasered three times before he could be handcuffed.
Other incidents had included an assault in which he had punched a man unconscious.
Pc Andy Forbes of West Mercia Police said: "Moorhouse's behaviour is clearly unacceptable and people who want to enjoy a night out in Kidderminster or Bewdley need to be protected from him.
"If Moorhouse breaks the Crasbo, he could be jailed for up to five years."
The order bans Moorhouse from going into Kidderminster and Bewdley between 7pm and 7am from Thursday to Saturday.
It also prevents him from using or threatening violence towards any person, and from communicating maliciously either by phone, text messages or social networking sites.
